The project’s lead artist Harold Offeh invited visitors to look at various TELEVISION GAMESHOW formats as spectacle, competition and entertainment.
Part 1 was a playful participatory event that looked at previous and existing family favourite game shows. We looked at classic and contemporary games including Win, Lose or Draw, Total Wipeout, It's a Knock Out. and asked participants play some and develop their own ideas.
Harold also explored the ideas of German artist Dirk Fleischmann, whose simple idea of guessing ten seconds on a stop-watch became the international gameshow Stop Show. Harold wins!
Harold will follow up Saturdays 31st October (Pt 2) and 7th November (Pt 3).
There is no obligation to attend all of these but they will link in some way.
